    Saw something about disconnecting the air bag sensors, does this affect the air bag in any way?

    Lift? Yea I got one of those
    I installed the 1" for my passenger seat since I added a thick cushion for my driver side already. Works well. Only downside is that I have a Weather Tech mat in the rear and it pushes the mat up... But since I'm only an access cab and carry no passengers it's not that big of a deal.

    I don’t see why they wouldn’t. I assume the seats bolt to the floor in the same fashion.

    Bump! Just wanted to see if anyone has added or figured out how to raise the front too? I realize the bolts are on an angle but if I lift the back by an inch and a half it seems like the seat would be tilted....anyone have any luck?

    I just put the spacers in the back and it has been great. Didn't add any spacers to the front I did loosen the front bolts when i did the rears so the seat would move freely then tightened everything back up when spacers were installed. It has been like that almost a year now and i have had no issues

    I made spacers for the rear out of a hard plastic cutting board and Grade 10.9 M10-1.25x50 bolts. Had to fight with one of the bolts to get it line up correctly. The board was 3/8" thick so I cut three pieces 2"x2" square for each post then dog-eared two corners to match the seat post. Just used a hacksaw and a file to shape the spacers. Lifted seat 1 1/8" for just under $14. Taking a short trip tomorrow to see how it feels.

    Update 10/26: Drove from northwest Washington to San Diego and back (2600 miles total) 3 days each way with butt in seat 7-8 hours each day. No back problems. Before this mod I made a 7 hour drive and could barely stand afterwards. Best $14 I ever spent.
